Hi Serena what I used to do is, instead of showing the average CPU load for the last week, I chose for the last month, or some other times I changed the number of days to wait before declaring a VM stalled. These are small changes, but very powerfull.

Thank you!

This was possible in the VMan appliance by changing the queries, but in Orion it is not possible

Hi Dez I think this is possible at the moment, probably not the easy way you suggest, but doable with the tools SolarWinds gives us right now. Let me show you the steps: * Add the node (you can choose any polling method, but I would recommend one that actually works with the device) * Create a SAM template with the TCP…

As a Solarwinds engineer I had some knowledge about PowerShell scripting, mainly for SAM and for the API. But this year I've taken very seriously to research how automate SolarWinds (Discovery for different modules, custom properties, custom pollers, maintenance windows, duplicated nodes...) Therefore I had to 'master'…

Why not Brighton in the UK? Sunny place with lovely places to go for a beer after the SWUG. If not London is always good.

I would love this

Hi this is possible at the command level. Some vendors (let's say Cisco), allows you to hide password or even configuration lines when you execute show running/startup. Solved: show run and hide password - Cisco Community Should you change the command SolarWinds executes to get the running or startup config, please bear in…

Hi you can see that info right now following these steps: * Click on a device (i.e. go to the node details view) * Add a new view resource: Custom query * Add this query:* select MAC from orion.nodemacaddresses where nodeid = ${nodeid} * submit This will show all the MAC addresses assigned to that device.

Hi you can automate the assignment of values to custom properties using different ways, probably the easiest one is using alerts. Here you have an example from sja​. Automate custom property fill in You can do the following as trigger condition: * Application template Name = YOURAPP * CUSTOMPROPERY is empty You can see…

Hi this is possible using PowerShell scripts in SAM. I've done this for those Cisco devices where SNMP is not supported, and it works fine. Obviosuly it requires some Powershell scripting skills, therefore having something that natively supports it would be much easier.

I guess that the problem to monitor HTTPS applications is that these packets will be encrypted (SSL), therefore it is not possible to access the URL within the HTTPS packet. The solution that other vendors (security tools) are using is to monitor DNS traffic as well, and correlate DNS request with IP address on the HTTPS.…

Hi trying with the inner join, this is the error message: 2016-07-26 09:26:52,396 [83] ERROR SolarWinds.InformationService.Core.InformationService - w3wp| /LM/W3SVC/2/ROOT-1-131139939442796689| SolarWinds.Orion.Core.Reporting.DataTableQueryCustomSWQL.Query()| /Orion/Services/DataSourceManagement.asmx/GetQueryResults…

Hi Simon I don't think that's the issue here, as we reviewed, the OIDs for process monitoring are available on that device. Raul Gonzalez Prosperon - UK SolarWinds Partners Installation | Consultancy | Training | Licenses

In that case i would recommend to change the community string for a test (use one with no special characters) and try again. If without the special charaters it works, then you know where the issue is. If it keeps failing I would do a packet capture and see what's going on there. Raul Gonzalez Prosperon - UK SolarWinds…

yeah... we need a 'null' value in the first line, I have a custom property named 'Site' assigned to nodes, and I have at least one node where I didn't populate the value for this custom property. This allows me to use it to get a proper 'null' value. You can use anything that contains null, such as custom properties…

Hi it works if i removed the IN or if i leave the in but remove the select inside the IN. For example, this woukd work: SELECT pec.componentid, ( pec.avgioreadoperationspersec + pec.avgiowriteoperationspersec ) AS avgiops, pec.timestamp, cst.componentprocessname, cst.componentprocessname + ' from ' + cst.componentname + '…

Hi Alterego I think those devices are identified as Linux because there is a node details poller assigned to it. Raul Gonzalez Prosperon - UK SolarWinds Partners Installation | Consultancy | Training | Licenses

Does the SNMP community string contain special characters? Or it only contains letters or numbers? Raul Gonzalez Prosperon - UK SolarWinds Partners Installation | Consultancy | Training | Licenses

Hi there is an option to use SWQL o SQL 'variables' on any trigger action of the alert. Raul Gonzalez Prosperon - UK SolarWinds Partners Installation | Consultancy | Training | Licenses

kind of, unless you can't use WMI and don't want to use SNMP. You still need the agent to monitor QoE though. Raul Gonzalez Prosperon - UK SolarWinds Partners Installation | Consultancy | Training | Licenses

Hi could you check if in the interface details view of any physical interface of that device the VLAN ID is displayed? (see figure below) If it is displayed, creating the report above mentioned should work, however sometimes, even though SolarWinds can get some VLAN statistics, it can't get VLANID and port mode. If this is…

Thank you Philip for your answer. So if I understood well, you are using the netscalers to redirect the traffic to the active HTTP (or in your case HTTPS) SolarWinds server, but also redirecting the internal SolarWinds ports such as TCP 17777 and 17778? Regards Raul

Hi if that device is in SolarWinds already, just follow the steps outlined on this blog post: Under The Radar: Device Not Replying To SNMPWMI/Agent - Prosperon Networks | Prosperon Networks Raul Gonzalez Prosperon - UK SolarWinds Partners Installation | Consultancy | Training | Licenses

That's right, I would add it to the first script. Bear in mind that you can also assign existing credentials in SolarWinds (SettingValue = CredentialID from Orion.Credentials). Raul Gonzalez Prosperon - UK SolarWinds Partners Installation | Consultancy | Training | Licenses

Hi Dereck there are two options here: * you can use IIS feature URL filter. This will allow you to only allow specific URL only:* Deny URL Sequences <denyUrlSequences> | Microsoft Docs * Or you can use another IIS feature, URL Rewrite. This will give you a more granular level of control and will hide the URL to the end…
